The CPU2 of the CPU1 of step 800~801, high performance of computer and the low performance of computing machine is in off-mode;
After the CPU1 start of step 802, high performance of computer, enter duty;
The CPU1 shutdown of step 803~804, high performance of computer, computing machine handoff processor, the CPU2 start of the low performance of computing machine;
The CPU1 of step 805~806, high performance of computer enters off-mode, and the CPU2 of the low performance of computing machine enters duty.
Fig. 9 is for the present invention has the workflow diagram of the computing machine of a plurality of processors, supposes that its concrete steps of CPU2 that this computing machine has high performance CPU1 and a low performance are:
Step 900, computing machine power on;
The CPU1 of step 901, high performance of computer starts;
The CPU1 of step 902, high performance of computer enters duty;
The CPU1 of step 903, high performance of computer judges whether to receive the duty switching signal, if, execution in step 904; Otherwise, return step 902;
The CPU2 of step 904, computer starting low performance closes high performance CPU1;
The CPU2 of the low performance of step 905, computing machine enters duty;
The CPU2 of the low performance of step 906, computing machine judges whether to receive the duty switching signal, if, execution in step 907; Otherwise, return step 905;
Step 907, the high performance CPU1 of computer starting close the CPU2 of low performance, change step 902 over to.
Fig. 9 is described to be the course of work with computing machine of two processors, when computing machine has a plurality of processor, owing in advance a plurality of processors are divided for two classes, so processing procedure is identical with Fig. 9, promptly when receiving the duty switching signal, computing machine switches on the another kind of processor and moves another kind of processor from a class processor of current operation.
When the present invention wants the processor of switching computer work at present as computed user, can directly send the duty switching signal to computing machine.The present invention also can set in advance switching condition on computers, and when satisfying switching condition, computing machine sends the duty switching signal.Set switching condition can comprise: the processor from low performance after then the back switched to the processor of low performance or received the computer run operational order from high performance processor time that does not carry out the operation of computing machine and setting switches to high performance processor or the like.
Below lift a specific embodiment explanation the present invention.
Suppose that it is the processor of S3C2410x that computing machine of the present invention has processor and the model that model is x86CPU.The model that Intel Company produces be the processor work dominant frequency of x86CPU between 3G~4G, power consumption is generally moved WINDOWS operating system about 100 watts; The model that Samsung produces is the microprocessor that the processor of S3C2410x is based on ARM7, and power consumption is generally moved the LINUX system about 0.5W.As shown in figure 10, when the model of computing machine is the processor work of x86CPU, the model of computing machine is that the processor of S3C2410x is cut off power supply, the external unit of computing machine is that the processor of x86CPU is connected by I/O bridge and the Memory bridge and the model of computing machine successively, and the model of computing machine is that the processor of x86CPU is operated computing machine by WINDOWS operating system.When the model of computing machine is the processor work of S3C2410x, the model of computing machine is that processor, Memory bridge and the I/O bridge of x86CPU cut off the electricity supply, the external unit of computing machine and the model of computing machine are that the processor of S3C2410x is connected, by model is the radio-cell of the processor of S3C2410x, and the external unit of computing machine can receive or send data to other wireless devices.The model of computing machine is that the processor of S3C2410x also can be in holding state for a long time, at any time carry out exchanges data with computing machine by the wired or wireless equipment that links to each other, when receiving will move computer operation the time, the model that switches to computing machine is the processor of x86CPU.Under the computing machine holding state and only with the situation of the external device data exchange of computing machine under, computing machine uses the processor of model as S3C2410x, because model is the preparation implement of S3C2410x low in energy consumption and good power management function is arranged, so can under the situation that computing machine often leaves, reduce the consumption of computing machine electric energy.Because two processors having of computing machine are used alternatingly, and model is that the processor of S3C2410x has can for a long time in running order characteristic, the mission life that has prolonged the employed processor of computing machine.
The above only is preferred embodiment of the present invention, not in order to restriction the present invention, all any modifications of being made within the spirit and principles in the present invention, is equal to and replaces and improvement etc., all should be included within protection scope of the present invention.
